Being physically active can help fight prostate cancer, prevent recurrence, and help with treatment side effect management.
When most men think of physical activity or exercise, they might imagine running, weight machines, and gyms. However, there are many activities that qualify as physical activity. Some include walking, gardening, dancing, or even playing with grandkids. If it makes you breathe harder and your heart beat faster, it’s probably exercise.
